angel of the morning.

Maybe the sun's light will be dimAnd it won't matter any howIf morning's echo says we've sinnedWell, it was what I wanted nowAnd if we're the victims of the nightI won't be blinded by the light

Just call me angel of the morning,Just touch my cheek before you leave me,Just call me angel of the morning,Then slowly turn awayI won't beg you to stay with meThrough the tears of the dayOf the years, baby.- The Pretenders

live your life in the best way.

poetry and passion

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?- Döda poeters sällskap

missing a piece

LXXI

No longer mourn for me when I am deadThan you shall hear the surly sullen bellGive warning to the world that I am fledFrom this vile world with vilest worms to dwell.Nay, if you read this line, remember notThe hand that writ it, for I love you so,That I in your sweet thoughts would be forgot,If thinking on me then should make you woe.Oh if, I say, you look upon the verse,When I, perhaps compounded am with clay,Do not so much as my poor name rehearse,But let your love even with my life decayLest the wise world should look into your moan,And mock you with me after I am gone.- William Shakespeareweheartit

Paulo Coelho quotes

"I think that perhaps we always fall in love the very first time we see the man of our dreams, even though, at the time, reason may be telling otherwise, and we may fight against that instinct, hoping against hope that we won't win, until there comes a point when we allow ourselves to be vanquished by our feelings..."

"We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It's one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it's another to think that yours is the only path."

"Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worse kind of suffering."
